One thing that has been missing from my office wardrobe for far too long is a pair of basic black pants. I was finally able to remedy that this week! These are the Love Notions Sabrina Slims(affiliate link), which I have always loved for their simple silhouette and great leg shape. The only gripe I ever had about the Sabrinas was that they require super stretchy fabric because there is no zipper. Well, I remedied that by adding an invisible side zip. And I even did a tutorial on the Love Notions blog to show you how to do it too! Find the tutorial here.

I’ve been having a really blah office fashion week. The weather is getting cooler, and my office is now freezing, and most of my summer clothes have now been packed away. I’m getting to the “full closet, nothing to wear” stage, which means it’s time for another big ol’ purge (or seasonal clothes swap, which I did last night), and to focus on some wardrobe holes. The seasons, they are a-changin’!
